Great location. Walkable to everywhere: parks, restaurants, bars, shopping etc. staff was friendly and helpful. Decor was upscale eclectic and had a nice vibe. We found parking just behind the hotel in a lot for just $11 for 24 hours. Valet was $50 but it was Valentines day. Comfortable beds. We will come back if we want a night away in downtown Mobile again.

This hotel is adorable! We booked that morning for a single night as a stopover on a long driving trip. We were surprised at how pretty everything is! The art is so cute & our daughter loved the evening cookies. The room was well-organized & a good size. The only thing some may not like is the air unit fan is very loud. It didn’t bother us as it provided white noise, but I wanted to make others aware of it. We will stay here again.

Beautiful hotel! The poor reviews must be from miserable people that complain about everything. Or if chandeliers and baby grand pianos offend you. The only reason I did not rate 5 stars is because the water could have been hotter in the shower. The eco- friendly part I’m assuming. I brought my 2 dogs and we received dog bowls, bandannas for them to wear and a keychain of waste bags. Will definitely be staying here again!

Won’t be back
Upon arrival at the front desk it took the lady about 5 minutes to acknowledge us. Our view was of the roof. The tv was so far away from the bed and so small it was pointless to watch from bed. The shower design is very poor. There is nothing there to block the water so when you shower the entire bathroom flooded. The only closet was inside the bathroom so if I had anything on the floor of the closet it would have gotten wet as the water went in there too. No counter around the sink to see anything. No side of there was room service or not it wasn't mentioned at check in nor did I see anything about it in the room. The WORST part is that I booked on hotels. Com which I was charged for the entire stay automatically. Apparently hotels.com did not send over my payment so the hotel charged me AGAIN and a week later I am still waiting on my refund….

We have stayed here many times and in October when we were there last they had remodeled the bar/restaurant area and it was beautiful. It was a shame we didn't stay longer or brought a change of clothes to properly enjoy the ammenities. The staff is always helpful, they are the most accommodating and since we always travel with our dogs thru Mobile, it is great to have The Admiral to stay at.
